    Abstract

    In the design of mobile sound systems an estimation of power consumption must be made in order to choose a battery of appropriate size and cost. However poor methods for power estimation tend to result in large and costly batteries. This paper aims to present a more precise method for estimating power consumption for a vented box sound system. Instead of simplifying a loudspeaker system as a purely ohmic resistance, its mechanical and acoustic parameters are used to create a state space model. Despite deviations at high frequencies, the state space model is at least twice as accurate at estimating the power consumption than simplifying the speaker as a resistor.
